Is there any way to remove the abc's and SKB's from this site?
- I just looked at the updated page and ... going for a walk, suddenly, seemed like a much better option

I know that one of the call signs has an agenda ( and apologies to the other one, seemingly well intentioned).

Users will only ever be removed from the site if they severely infringe the rules. Neither of the users you mentioned have done so to my knowledge, but you’re free to use the report feature to bring any of their posts to our attention. The Friends & Foes system can also be used to hide the posts of users you do not wish to see. You can read more about it here: http://ukdefenceforum.net/faq.php#f6r0

An excellent feature!

As I do use it, then it became (un-inspiringly) a whole page of story lines I do not want to click on.
- normally, when I see those acronymns, I just wait for someone else to appear on the thread, with a comment

But a whole page, full of them... gimme air! So , left it and got the air.
- A good way for no one wanting to click on this tab, though?
